Details

The StgCompObjStream::Load() failed to check the validity of a length
field in documents. If an attacker tricked a user to open a specially
crafted OpenOffice file, this triggered a buffer overflow which could
lead to arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the user
opening the document.

The update for Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog) also contains a
translation update: The “openoffice.org-l10n-xh” package now contains
actual Xhosa translations (the previous version just shipped English
strings).
